The Cimarron Firearms Co Model 71 Premium is a modern reproduction of Winchester's legendary Model 71 lever-action rifle, chambered in the hard-hitting .45-70 Government cartridge. Built by Davide Pedersoli in Italy, this 24-inch rifle combines historical authenticity with the build quality and features today's hunters and sport shooters demand. If you're looking for a .45-70 lever gun that handles like a dream and looks like it belongs in a classic firearms collection, the Model 71 Premium delivers on both fronts.
The Premium variant steps up from the Classic with a color case hardened frame that catches the light beautifully, paired with a deluxe pistol grip walnut stock and matching forearm—both hand checkered for sure grip and visual appeal. The 24-inch barrel is blued steel, traditional and reliable. The half-magazine configuration holds 5 rounds, giving you a balance of capacity and the fast-handling feel that made the original '71 famous. Modern sighting options include a traditional rear sight and contemporary front sight, with optional receiver peep sight available; sling swivels are fitted and ready to go. A thick rubber recoil pad absorbs the .45-70's substantial punch, making this rifle manageable even during a long hunt.
The .45-70 chambering is no novelty—it's a proven manstopper that's taken everything from Cape buffalo to Alaskan moose, and it remains one of the most versatile big-game cartridges available to hunters in North America. Whether you're after deer, elk, or dangerous game, the energy and penetration of the .45-70 from a 24-inch barrel delivers. Lever-action rifles have a following for good reason: they're intuitive to operate, reliable in the field, and fast between shots. The Model 71 Premium carries that tradition forward with the fit and finish that makes you actually *want* to take it out of the safe.
This is a rifle for hunters and shooters who value heritage and craftsmanship—and who appreciate a firearm that does real work. Cimarron's reproduction is detailed enough to satisfy the purist, accurate enough to handle modern hunting and target work, and built tough enough to last generations.
